Absolutely nailed dinner (the cooking at least, I don't go for fine restaruant "plating"). Turkey meatloaf, with roasted fennel & brussels sprouts, glazed carrots, mashed potato & gravy. Everything was cooked perfectly. The fennel and carrot were also grown in my own garden. Five more serves of meatloaf to go in the freezer for future dinners & lunches.
I had such a big lunch, brie, lettuce, ham, raspberry jam on a nice bun that I'm just nibbling stuff for dinner.
That looks awesome to me Rusty.. I've not heard of turkey meatloaf, and I'm curious as to what flavourings or spices it had in it. If you care to divulge, that is!
Nothing too dramatic flavour wise. It has turkey mince, tomato paste, chopped garlic, onion & parsley, eggs and breadcrumbs, plus some chopped dried mushrooms and a tsp of gelatine (helps with moisture & mouthfeel). I did a glaze on top of cranberry sauce.
That sounds like something I'd enjoy, might save this comment and give it a go. Thanks Rusty!
Oooo gravy.
